| A few years ago my kids did Jumpstart Typing. It had games where you had to type the right letters, then the right words, quickly or miss the next skateboard jump, or the next toehold as you climbed the mountain, or whatever. My daughter just loved it and types really quickly now. DS, who came along a few years later, thought the games were a bit simple compared to today's software, and his school had typing class anyway. Don't know if they've updated the software in the past year or so, but if they have it's worth a look. |

| My kids learned with Typershark. There is a free online version (which my kids like more) and one you can pay to download. |
